| slm If I agree to be interviewed by the tv news in regard to Ramadan- what questions may they ask to present Islam in a negative way? - any suggestions and advice! |

| They might bring up research on how it's harmful to go without water for so long etc etc. Maybe you should do reserach on it as well (from both a scientific and Islamic perspective). But insha Allah maybe they won't try to make it look bad, maybe it'll just be informative. Fat chance? |

| Assalaamu-alaikum They may also ask on suicide bombers, and also on the riots in the muslim world, and your views on the taliban. They may also ask you why you converted to a "barbaric religion". |

| slm If you're being interviewed during Ramadhan, then you may need to prepare for the following silly questions, asked of me every year in almost exactly the same fashion: 1. What, you can't eat anything all day? But you can drink, right? 2. What, not even a glass of water? 3. Man, that can't be good for you. 4. So, how do you explain all those people who die during Ramadhan in hot Muslim countries every year? |

| slm Thanks for your answers- I met with the man yesterday and warned him (in the most polite way)- that I will not discuss any political issues- (sorry Nazir- call me what you may) So it is going to be just about Ramadan and the family. Two other new muslims will be joining us. Any good "prep" web sites I can forward to them, about Ramadan? (other than Jannah.org?) |
